I’m Antonio and I’m from Bronx New York. I’m in the 8th grade; my mom says we’re moving to Missouri. I didn’t like the idea of moving to Missouri, but I said “ My what’s in Missouri?” m mom says “I think it has an better environment, well at least better than Bronx”
“Where in Missouri anyways?” I asked
“Saint Louis”
“They only have the arch, we have a song made after us… The South Bronx The South South Bronx”
“Well you have no other choice, well unless you want to move with your dad”
“I’ll start packing!”
When we left Bronx , its like I had no life in St. Louis. I arrived there and my house is small, bad neighborhood, and on top some guy tried to sell me some drugs. As soon as I walked out of my car, I knew this is going to be bad. It took my mom a few weeks to get me into a school. I got into Wydown Middle School. The 1st day u already made friends. Their names are Ben, Jeremiah, Anthony, and Clayton. There’s someone else named Antonio there too, he’s the funniest man in the world. When I got home, My mom was amazed on how many friends I made. I told my mom “Moving to Saint Louis was great idea.”
The next day of school was even better. We had a field day, a field day is when we do nothing but play all day! But the day got bad as it proceeded. A guy named Jake Henderson was the bully of the school. I mean this guy was mean. He had a tattoo that said “thug Life” on his arm. He stand at about 6’ 3 and weights about 250 pounds. He could play for the New York Giants. Today he decided to pick on me. At the water balloon toss, instead of throwing it at the grass he threw it at me. After a few activates I got tiered of it. So I said to myself “ The next time he does it again…he’s done” so at lunch he took my Peanut Butter Jelly sandwich, so I punched him in the face. Ben had to get me off of him, and after that my teacher Mr. Baugh sent me to the principal she told me “ Do you really want to get suspended on you 2nd day?”
I said “no ma’am, He started it, He…”
“I don’t want to hear the story I just know you threw the 1st punch”
As I walked back over to my group, Ben and everyone else looked at me in shock. They said Nice going we were tired of that punk messing with us. I didn’t feel proud of myself but I just took the credit. My popularity boosted all day I got “Heys” from all the cute girls. On the bus Jake was a seat behind me. I was really paranoid, I felt that he was gonna like hit me or something. But the whole bus ride he didn’t touch me. When I got home my mom told me I was tranfering schools. I was heart broken, because my 1st few days of school were the best days of my life.
